STEERING
ALL BUTTONS EXCEPT CRUISE CONTROL ON THE STEERING WHEEL HAVE QUIT WORKING. THE HORN WON'T WORK EITHER. WHEN IT QUIT WORKING THE VOLUME BUTTONS STARTED ACTING UP THEN IT ALL JUST QUIT AT ONCE. I'M SURE IF ALL THAT HAS STOPPED WORKING THEN THE AIR BAG WON'T EITHER. I BELIEVE IT'S THE CLOCK SPRING CAUSING ALL THIS CHAOS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
EARLY MAY 2019 MY JEEP'S STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AND NOW COMPLETELY NOT WORKING. THE HORN STOPPED WORKING, RADIO AND HANDS FREE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. I CAN NOT USE MY DASH SCREEN AT ALL AND IT'S JUST SHOWING '- - '. I COULD NOT USE MY HORN ON MAY10TH AND WAS CUT OFF AND AS A RESULT WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. THE FRONT END WAS SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGED AND THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY AND I BUSTED MY FACE ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND HIT HEAD ON WINDSHIELD. DIAGNOSTIC SCAN SAID THERE WAS 0 CODES PRIOR TO ACCIDENT AND THAT TRIGGERED ME TO DO RESEARCH ON THE CLOCK SPRING RECALL BUT MY VIN IS NOT UNDER IT???

POWER TRAIN
FOR 2014, CHRYSLER MADE A CHANGE TO A PART CALLED THE "OIL FILTER ADAPTER" WHICH SITS ON TOP OF THE ENGINE, UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. THERE ARE NOW A PARADE OF PEOPLE WITH VARIOUS CHRYSLER VEHICLES THAT USE THE 3.6L REPORTING THAT THE NEW PART CRACKS, CAUSING A MAJOR OIL LEAK, POTENTIALLY A FIRE, AND CAN CAUSE YOUR ENGINE TO BE DRAINED OF ALL OIL. PART NUMBER IS 68105583AA AND IT APPLIES ONLY TO 3.6L CHRYSLER V6 ENGINES. I PURCHASED THE JEEP USED AND NOW HAVE JUST OVER 60K MILES - CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO COVER UNDER THEIR "100K MILE" POWERTRAIN WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT AND I STILL HAVE ALMOST 40K MILES TO GO BEFORE I REACH 100K MILES.

DOOR HINGES ARE RUSTING FROM UNDERNEATH THE PAINT. "AT THE START OF THE 2007 MODEL YEAR, JEEP STARTED USING ALUMINUM HINGES THAT CARRY A SECRET; A FLAW IN THE WAY THAT THE ALUMINUM IS ANODIZED CAUSES OXIDATION UNDER THE PAINT, EVEN WITH THE ABSENCE OF AIR AND WATER.WHAT YOU ESSENTIALLY HAVE IS A VEHICLE WITH HINGES THAT ARE SUBPAR."

AIRBAG RECALL: I'VE HAD AN AIRBAG LIGHT ON FOR OVER A YEAR NOW BUT NO ACTIVE RECALL WAS OUT FOR MY VIN AT THE TIME I CHECKED WITH THE DEALER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. RECENTLY, THE ENGINE LIGHT CONTINUED TO COME ON WITH A FAULT CODE FOR THE AIRBAG. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO THE LARRY H MILLER DODGE LOCATED AT 4220 E 22ND ST, TUCSON, AZ 85711 TO HAVE THE PROBLEM RESOLVED. AFTER WRITING UP A WORK ORDER FOR ENGINE DIAGNOSTICS I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL STATING I WOULD NEED A CLOCKSPRING TO RECTIFY THE AIRBAG PROBLEM. AT THIS TIME I INFORMED THEM THAT THERE WAS AN ACTIVE SAFETY RECALL FOR THE VEHICLE, WHICH THEY WERE UNAWARE OF DESPITE HAVING PRINTED THE INFORMATION WHEN THEY CHECKED THE VEHICLE IN (NOBODY ACTUALLY CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL, THEY SIMPLY PRINTED THE NECESSARY VIN CHECK PAPERWORK). IN ADDITION TO THIS I ALSO HAVE LOST CRUISE CONTROL FUNCTION AS WELL AS HAVING TO PRESS EXTREMELY HARD ON MY STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS FOR THEM TO WORK. SOUNDS SIMILAR TO OTHER PEOPLES' REPORTED PROBLEMS. I FEEL I SHOULDN'T BE CHARGED A DIAGNOSTIC IN THE FIRST PLACE AS THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE FIRST THING THAT WAS CHECKED AND CORRECTED BEFORE ANYTHING BUT I'LL HAVE TO TAKE THAT UP WITH THEM.
